Apresentação geral
Shawnee National Forest
Sandstone falsities, cypress marshes and rural roads in the extreme south of Illinois.
Garden of the Gods Wilderness, Cave-in-Rock State Park and Cache River State Natural Area are the most telling landmarks of Shawnee National Forest. Together, they form a destination where forests, wetlands, natural spaces and the countryside meet, with atmospheres that change over the course of the stages rather than just one uniform decor.
Ver tudo
For a stay of 3 to 6 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be anticipated: important distances between certain places. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Jardim
Garden of the Gods Wilderness
The Garden of the Gods Wilderness covers a relief of high cliffs in the heart of the Shawnee National Forest, with deep views and erosion-carved rocks. The trails reveal an abruptly open nature, ideal for a slow rhythm and a true immersion.

Gruta
Cave-in-Rock State Park
Cave-In-Rock Park features an ancient landmark of the Ohio River, with a rocky meandering that immediately gives the site a dramatic character. Overhanging walks and views of the river make it a strong stop in the southwest of the state.

Nature and landscape
Cache River State Natural Area
Cache River State Natural Area reveals a near-marsty southern Illinois, with bald cypresses, dark waters, slow canals and wooden bridges. Canoeing or wet trails bring the landscape closer, between drowned trunks and bird screams. The place is especially surprising for those who associate the state with the agricultural plains.
